FibreKorm Fiber Post

GENERAL INFORMATION

FibreKor Posts feature longitudinal glass fibers bundled in a resin matrix designed to deliver strength, flexural modulus, and esthetics. FibreKor Posts are available in a kit or refills in a variety of sizes.

PRODUCT COMPOSITION
FibreKor is a methacrylate resin based glass fiber post.

INDICATIONS FOR USE
Reinforcement of an end odontically involved tooth. Retention of core and core material.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
None known.

WARNINGS

  • FibreKor posts should NOT be used in teeth with less than 2 mm of corona! tooth structure above the crestal bone.
  • FibreKor posts must NOT be cemented with glass ionomer, zinc phosphate or polycarboxylate cement.
  • FibreKor drills should not be used on patients with known sensitivity to chromium.
  • FibreKor drills must be sterilized via steam autoclaving prior to use. See the cleaning and sterilization instructions below.
  • FibreKor posts must be disinfected. 70% isopropyl alcohol may be used. Following disinfection, thoroughly rinse and dry the post before cementing.
  • Do not use FibreKor drills at higher than 1,000 RPM.

PRECAUTIONS

  • This product is intended to be used by qualified dental professionals on a general patient population.
  • Use a rubber dam to isolate the treated tooth and avoid fluid contamination during the procedure.
  • If 2 mm of coronal tooth structure above the (testa’ bone is unavailable, crown lengthening or orthodontic forced eruption should be considered to achieve an adequate ferrule.
  • FibreKor posts are pre-silanated for increased adhesion to resin cements and core
  • To minimize stress on the core-tooth interface and the post contained within, the finish line or margin of the preparation should remain on the solid tooth structure, not on the core buildup.
  • FibreKor posts must be cut with a diamond bur. Do not cut fiber posts with a carbide bur as this may splinter the post.
  • If endodontic retreatment of the apex is required, the FibreKor post can be removed by drilling into the center of the post with a needle diamond to a depth of 2-3 mm to start, then continue with the corresponding size of FibreKor drill. It is recommended that during post removal, frequent radiographs be taken to ensure that the instruments are following the path of the post to help prevent perforation of the root
  • FibreKor posts, tips and applicator brushes are for single patient use only. This is to prevent cross-contamination between patients.

ADVERSE EVENTS

If a serious incident occurs with this medical device, report it to the manufacturer and to the competent authority for that country in which the user and/or patient is established.

STEP-BY-STEPINSTRUCTIONS

  1. Isolate the treated tooth with a rubber dam.
  2. Estimate the width and depth of the post space preparation based on the dinica I examination and the radiograph of the treated tooth. Refer to the table at the end of this section for available sizes of posts and corresponding drills.
  3. Select a post with a diameter that is similar in diameter of the obturated canal at the tooth’s cervical to ensure as much cervical tooth structure as possible is preserved.
  4. Determine the depth of the post space preparation, leaving at least 4 mm of obtu ration material or g utta-percha at the apical end. Place rubber endodontic stop on the drill corresponding to the desired depth to avoid overpreparing the post space.
  5. Alternatively, use a heated instrument to remove the obturation material followed by a post drill that was previously selected.
  6. Using the size of FibreKor drill that matches the post to be inserted, complete the canal preparation.
  7. Flush out the canal to remove the debris and dry it with an air syringe and paper points
  8. Trial seat the FibreKor post in the canal that corresponds to the size of the drill used. A radiograph may be taken at this point to verify that the post is fullyseated.
  9. FibreKor Posts must be trimmed with a water-cooled, high-speed diamond bur. Rotate the post while cutting to ensure a smooth cut.
  10. Clean the post with an alcohol wipe and dry it with a blast of oil-free air.
  11. Cement the post using your preferred cement material according to manufacturer’s instructions.
